Cuba's National Art Schools, commissioned in 1961 by Fidel Castro and Che Guevera, are striking architectural examples of the Revolution's early idealistic promise-and its later Sovietized ossification. The sensuous buildings were disavowed as bourgeois in 1965, and abandoned to the jungle. Interest in the schools has revived in recent years, through, and efforts to rehabilitate them are underway.
